   Specification (from draft-leach-uuids-guids-01.txt )

   <p>
   A UUID is an identifier that is unique across both space and time,
   with respect to the space of all UUIDs. To be precise, the UUID
   consists of a finite bit space. Thus, collision cannot be avoided in
   principle. A UUID can be used for multiple purposes, from tagging objects
   with an extremely short lifetime, to reliably identifying very persistent
   objects across a network.

   <p>
    The generation of UUIDs does not require that a registration
    authority be contacted for each identifier. Instead, Version 4 UUIDs are
    generated from (pseudo unique) sequences of (pseudo) random bits.

/** Creates named UUIDs.

    <p>
    The version 3 UUID is meant for generating UUIDs from <em>names</em> that
    are drawn from, and unique within, some <em>name space</em>. Some examples
    of names (and, implicitly, name spaces) might be DNS names, URLs, ISO
    Object IDs (OIDs), reserved words in a programming language, or X.500
    Distinguished Names (DNs); thus, the concept of name and name space
    should be broadly construed, and not limited to textual names.

    <p>
    The requirements for such UUIDs are as follows:

    <ul>
    <li> The UUIDs generated at different times from the same name in the
         same namespace MUST be equal

    <li> The UUIDs generated from two different names in the same namespace
         should be different (with very high probability)

    <li> The UUIDs generated from the same name in two different namespaces
         should be different with (very high probability)

    <li> If two UUIDs that were generated from names are equal, then they
         were generated from the same name in the same namespace (with very
         high probability).
    </ul>

    @param pTargetUUID pointer to at least 16 bytes of memory. After the call
                       it contains the newly generated uuid in network byte order.
    @param pNameSpaceUUID The namespace uuid. Below are some predefined ones,
                          but any arbitrary uuid can be used as namespace.

    @param pName the name
